Welcome to Litsy!

So good! I‘m so happy to have to drive 30 min to work then walk 15isb min. I can listen listen listen and this one is great! I‘m surprised I haven‘t heard it

For my commute

This story is 100% better than the movie, Richards is a better character more believable, more likable, story more realistic. Not a horror story but a great psychological tale.

Excellent book. Definitely recommend.

I really enjoyed The Running Man. Stephen King is really good at dystopian, not so good at happy endings but this one works well. Also for a small book this one packs a big punch 👤 #losersclub

Surprise book mail from my mom at work today!!! I mentioned that I wanted to borrow it and she ended up just buying me my own copy. Not sure if that means she hates to share or what lol #surprisebookmail #ilovemymom #sharingiscaring #ornot

Just a reminder that February‘s #losersclub read takes us back to Bachman for #TheRunningMan! Buy, borrow, or beg your copy and check back in next month when we begin reading this one. I‘ll be #ghosthosting this one, but everyone is welcome to join in!

Much darker than the movie. At first, I was somewhat underwhelmed. However, the ending was much more satisfying than the movie. I love the whole, 'if I'm going down, I'm taking you with me' concept.

Out of "The Bachman Books" this is my second favorite, behind "The Long Walk."

First book finished in 2019! This was a really dark thriller that kept me completely engrossed.

Amazing, amazing book! Dystopian novel set in a future America. Richards has to win the game so his daughter can get the life saving medicine she needs.

Diving into the next read, even though I really should get some sleep.

The Running Man takes place in a totalitarian dystopian future in which individuals (the poor) have the opportunity to participate in reality TV for money, however they are subjected to bodily harm & possibly death during their show. Ben Richards has been recruited for one of the deadlier shows. Although the story started off a bit slow, once the hunt began I ended up really liking it.

Entretenido de principio a fin.

R is for The Running Man!
Did Stephen King invent Reality TV?!

R is for the Running Man

“Welcome to America in 2025.
Where the best men don‘t run for President,
They run for their lives.”

Need to read this one!
I ❤️ dystopian science-fiction.

Great book other than the ending feels rushed

My other favorite past time, other then reading books, has become running 🏃‍♀️
My ADHD puts so much unused energy into my body that it seems to be the best relaxation technique ever. Does anyone else have any other favorite hobbies that keep them sane?
I also enjoy binge watching historical documentaries 😁

Loved

Relaxing Sunday at a new coffee establishment, Alpha Coffee. Great brews and a great mission, sending coffee to our troops. They have sent over 10,000 bags of coffee “down range” since 2010. If you‘re in Utah please get out and support these guys and try the Aztec if you like a little kick in your brew. If not, check out their website for ordering online. Also finished up a re-read of The Running Man, my second favorite Bachman Book. 4⭐️‘s #coffee

My latest #chronologicalkingread has a scene where the main character must escape the Hunters set on killing him through a sewer pipe. Which has just reminded me of another sewer escape in King's bibliography: Andy's in Shawshank!

One year ago today, I started my #chronologicalkingread! I really did well for the first few months, but this year I've only made progress on 3 books on the list!

Time to kick it up a notch. Next up: The Running Man, which I've never read. Then it's on to some great rereads 😊

Here's to a strong start to year 2!

3.5 mile run ?? in ✅
? then homework ? and the maybe I can finish My absolute darling.
While reading last night I had the scene from 1990 version of "it" running through my head. The scene where Beverly Marsh's dad says " I am worry Bevie, I worry a lot. " creepy

Well there's no #runningandjumping for me after my klutzy self took a spill yesterday (which was by no means #glamorous )However, this book has a lot of running in it .

I picked up this book on a whim yesterday and now I can't put it down. Who knew? Also: are there other Stephen King books that are less scary and more Sci-Fi?

"Un nuevo concurso, cabe su tumba, estaba ya en el aire..." #spanish #readbook #stephenking #libro

I think my favorite of the #bachmanbooks is The Running Man. It was close between this and Thinner! #stephenking17 @Josie @Gayan

I'd forgotten how good this book is! "I know you - you're that a**hole off TV!". Classic.

I finally managed to get this '88 edition of 'The Running Man' off my brother! It came with the Atari ST version of the video game/movie tie in. Awesome book!

That so did not end the way I thought it would! 😳Awesome as usual Mr. King!! 😍😍📚📚📚

Started this one today. One of Stephen King's books that I have never read. So far so good! 🤓

New book! Super excited!

#KingofHorror

My second favourite Bachman book now (The Long Walk is first). Loved it.

As usual the book was so much better than the movie. This book is not a "horror" novel but it is still awesome take some time to experience a bleak future and enjoy.

If you're in the mood for a fast-paced read with nonstop action & tension, this is your book. I stayed up late last night to finish it, and I have no regrets even though I am tired today. Now I'm trying to decide what Stephen King book to pick up next.

Hike. Read. Repeat.

The best Stephen King ever! I couldn't tear myself away from it. Soooo good! And so relevant. Ignore the film version, this is far superior💯
